Pedicure Equipment & Tools: How to Give a Pedicure

Series Summary

Our feet do an amazing amount of work. It is estimated that each foot carries several tons of weight over the course of a day, and that often in poorly ventilated, uncomfortable shoes, over rough, irregular terrain. We tend to expect our poor feet to do their jobs consistently and quietly. Yet, we often neglect to give them some much needed TLC from time to time.

In many societies, the feet are considered parts of the body that are not to be seen, especially the soles of the feet; while in other cultures, feet are beautiful, and are adorned with rings, anklets and nail polish.
